Chapter 715 - House of Riches

    Chapter 715: House of Riches


    “Can you show me what you’re trying to sell?” Gu Xin asked them after a moment of silence.


    Feng Yuxiang nodded and retrieved a treasure from her storage ring before cing it on the round table before them.


    “T-This is…”


    Gu Xin’s body trembled with shock upon seeing the treasure, and her eyes were wide with disbelief.


    “This… Is this what I think it is…?” Gu Xin had to swallow her nervousness a couple of times before she could utter any words.


    The House of Riches has existed for thousands of years, and being one of the most famous auction houses in this world, they have dealt with countless valuable and priceless treasures.


    Gu Xin, while having worked at the House of Riches for only fifty years, has seen her fair share of valuable treasures, so there were not many treasures out that could excite her, much less shock her to such an extent.


    However, seeing Feng Yuxiang’s treasure had shocked her so much that she forgot her position as the manager of the auction house.


    “If you think this is the scale belonging to a Flood Dragon, then you are correct.” Feng Yuxiang smiled.


    “How in heaven’s name did you acquire such a treasure? Flood Dragons are extremely rare, and they can only be found in the Fourth Heaven and above! Although I have never personally seen a Flood Dragon’s scale before, I have read about them, and ording to its wless surface that has no visible damages, this is a perfect scale!”


    Flood Dragons are incredibly scarce and powerful magical beasts that belong to the dragon race, and they border between being a magical beast and a Divine Beast. Furthermore, most of them are born with a cultivation at Spirit Emperor, so many cultivators fear them.


    “How I acquired it is none of your business. The question here is whether you want to sell this or not.”


    “O-Of course!” Gu Xin immediately nodded her head. Even an idiot would not refuse to sell such a priceless treasure at their auction house.


    “Good, but I have a few conditions. If you don’t ept these conditions, I will have to visit the next auction house.” Feng Yuxiang calmly said, as she was not worried about not being able to sell the Flood Dragon’s scale.


    After all, any auction house that manages to sell such a priceless treasure would instantly be the most popr auction house for the next decade, even century, regardless of their status before.


    “Anything! No matter your condition, I will make sure that it will happen!” Gu Xin said.


    “It’s quite simple, actually. If you want me to sell the Flood Dragon’s scale in your auction house, you’ll have to sell these treasures alongside it.”


    Feng Yuxiang ced another spatial ring on the table.


    “May I look at it?” Gu Xin asked.


    “Go ahead.” Feng Yuxiang opened the spatial ring to let her peek inside.


    Gu Xin’s jaw dropped when she saw the sheer amount of treasures in the spatial ring. Although they were not as valuable as the Flood Dragon’s scale even whenbined, it was the number that terrified her.


    “This… Although I don’t mind selling them, it will take some time to sell all of them…”


    “One week. I want you to sell all of them in one week. I don’t care how you do it. You can sell them across different auction houses, or you can open the auction house everyday. I will let you decide.” Feng Yuxiang said.


    “Rest assured. I will make sure that all of the treasures in this spatial ring are turned to spirit stones within a week or less. I will put my name and reputation on the line.” Gu Xin said with a serious face.


    “And in case you want to steal from my Young Master, just know that I have calcted approximately how much I can get for selling all of the treasures at its lowest price. I will also be watching the sales.”


    “T-That will never happen! I am willing to put my life on the line! The House of Riches has existed for thousands of years, but we have never once stolen even a single copper coin from our dear customers! You can rest assured that you will receive every coin that it was sold for, not including themission rates.”


    “And speaking ofmission rates, the House of Riches has a 10 percentmission fee, but I will make an exception for you by lowering it to 5 percent.”


    However, Feng Yuxiang shook her head and said, “That won’t do.”


    “Eh?”


    Feng Yuxiang pointed at the Flood Dragon’s scale and said with a gentle smile on her face, “Make it one percent. Even with one percent, you’ll earn more than a month’s worth of fee just from the scale alone. If I give it to another auction house— one that is less prestigious, they might even sell it for free. It’s honor and reputation that’s the most important to an auction house that’s already as wealthy as the House of Riches, right?”


    A bittersweet smile appeared on Gu Xin’s face as she spoke, “I cannot argue with that. Very well, I shall lower themission fee to 1 percent.”


    Even if Feng Yuxiang asked her to remove themission feepletely, she would have still agreed. That’s just how rare and precious the Flood Dragon’s scale is. However, Feng Yuxiang had no reason to bully the House of Riches, so she spared them one percent of the sales.


    As for the Flood Dragon’s scale itself, of course, it wasn’t part of what Yuan gave her to sell. It was something from her own collection that she’d acquired from the upper heavens, but in order to help Yuan sell his treasures as quickly and efficiently as possible, she decided to part ways with the treasure.


    “Esteemed Guests, onest thing before we sell the treasures. Would you like to remain anonymous for the treasures? Most specifically, the Flood Dragon’s scale.” Gu Xin asked a momentter.


    “Yes, sell them anonymously,” she quickly responded.


    “I understand.”
